I first visited Garry with a chronic sciatica complaint that I had suffered from for many years. I found the staff at Today's Healthcare to be very attentive and when it came to making a professional assesment second to none. To my surprise I was informed that the complaint was not just managable but cureable. I found the communication of each aspect of my problem to be very clear and instructional on each step until it was resolved. Since that time I have had never had a recurrence of sciatica and that was over 2 years ago.. I have nothing but praise to say about Garry and Todays healthcare's services and their knowledges and expertise is second to none.

Garry's Pilates sessions are fun and hard work without you realising just how hard you are working. He explains the principles of the exercises clearly then gradually introduces routines of increasing difficulty, never pushing and always helpful. Since starting Pilate's sessions, I have felt fitter, and recurring morning stiffness in the lower back has become a thing of the past, my posture seems to have improved, too.

I went to see Garry Russell as a chiropractor because I had considerable pain in my left knee, which was causing me to limp and made walking long distances exhausting. From the beginning Garry approached the problem in a holistic way. Being forced to really look at myself changed my life.

I saw Garry regularly for the next 3 months for treatment which also incorporated acupuncture. The treatment was very intensive because most of my major muscles had been misused for a long time. Garry explained everything very clearly so that I could understand the logic to the treatment and that helped me to cooperate and do follow up activities at home. Initially, without me realising it I began to feel stronger and more positive and this has had many beneficial effects on the rest of my life.

From the beginning I was fascinated by the Pilates studio next door to the treatment room and I have recently moved from having treatments to working in the Pilates machines. The exercises are based on breath control and pelvic core stability and for me everything is a personal challenge where although I have a long way to go I can see small glimmers of progress all the time. I have more energy, more strength and more flexibility of movement. Garry is an excellent teacher and uses the knowledge, which he has gained during the chiropractic sessions to devise my programme. There are never more than three people in each class and even if they are at different levels of ability, he is able to focus on each person individually, using a combination of demonstration, visualisation and guidance. This has not been a quick fix experience more an ongoing journey.
